Default 1st Churchill trip/random thoughts and observations

Leave Roanoke at 4:54 am

-6.5 hour drive with no coffee for the first 5.5 hours equates to a very long morning, but with a bladder the size of a mustard seed, I had no desire to add 5 bathroom breaks and another 1 hour drive time to the day.

-The State of West Virginia felt compelled to keep me awake by having me stop every 30 miles along a 90 mile stretch of I-77 to bend me over and take some toll money. Total cost = 3 horse $1 exacta box. C*cksuckers...

-After watching a total DB on a crotch rocket, weave in and out of morning traffic in Charlestown, WVa, it's a wonder the fatality rate for them isn't higher.

-Find a lot of humor in the fact that there is a Bible College and Southern "X"posure Gentlemans Club off the same exit. Wonder how many of them boys sneak over to the club...

-Intestate 64 connecting Ashland and Lexington is the longest, most boring drive...ever

-Beautiful scenery between Lexington and Louisville, though.

-Churchill Downs seems nice, but can't hold a candle to Saratoga. The neighborhood near the Gate 10 parking is sketchy...at best. Still a great day to be at the track with nice weather. It was great to pay $3 and park my ass in seats right at the finish line. I won't mention any names, but a certain Capt. Obvious informed me everyone was in Maryland this weekend.

-Beautiful women everywhere

-My handicapping sucks as bad on track, as off.
